Apparently Paris Hilton got arrested for marihuana possesion outside the stadium after the Brazil match.

Life is so unfair. That skank got to witness that game live and I had to work today :(
What? That bitch doesn't even care about football.

Such bullshit that she is going to games and I'm not.
Suarez, Uruguay's #9, the one that got red carded
I know I was joking. How can he not have cheated handling the ball on the line like that?

I wouldn't hold it against him, he sacrificed himself to save his team. I would have done the same if I were in his position but thats still cheating.

But why is it cheating? He got punished for it by getting a red card and missing the semis. Ghana were giving the advantage (at the 120th minute!) of a PK for Suarez's "mistake" and missed their chance to go to the semi finals. Had Gyan scored that PK, Ghana would have progressed because the time was basically over

I would have done the same thing.

If I had to decide to let a basically golden goal in or stop it with my hand and gift the other team a penalty kick I would choose the second option since the other team might screw up the PK. And that's what happened

What do you need an excuse for? And you call yourself a whigger:disagree:

How is it not cheating? Using your hands in football is against the rules so intentionally using your hands is cheating.

He cheated but was willing to sacrifice himself and take the punishment, which is admirable but still cheating.

Of course, I wouldn't look down on him for it but it is undeniable cheating to use your hand. It's part of the game, but whether you get caught or not using your hands is cheating.

He cheated, but no one in that situation would just let the ball in, you would do anything to stop it....which is what he did. I think he could have got to it using his head or chest but it was his choice. Its the same reason henry did what he did in the play off, if i were in the same situation as either of them i imagine i would do the same thing.

When i play friendly games with my mates i sometimes do stuff like that without thinking/realising i have done it.

Suarez is a legend. He did exactly what he had to do and simply got punished for it. He did the right thing. If one of our players done that and we had the same outcome as Uraguay then we'd call him a hero.
